    Dempsey is a feared unified cruiser weight champion who moves up fight at 210 pounds and shocks all the bigger means better brigade by stopping wlad

    Or more likely he boils down to 175 and dominates. Hasn't got the right style to dominate at heavyweight.

    Drains down to 175, unifies the betls. Goes up to cruiser, becomes undisputed. Then goes up to HW, dominates Klitschko and stops Povetkin and Pulev the next week. :)

    On a more serious note, nobody would even hear of him.

    When I read these threads I'm always suprised by the number of people who have never watched a full Dempsey fight or read his book and base their opinion of his fighting style based on 10 second clips of him finishing off hurt fighters.

    Oh wait this is boxing24. No I'm not suprised.

    Before every Huck fight you predict him getting beat, and every time you're wrong lol

    Huck is a tough mfer and would give Dempsey all he could handle, probably picking up a ud in the process

    Dempsey would look like space age if he fought today.

    Boxing now is carefully, slowly and become full of soft.

    :nono

    I knew he'd beat Swamp Donkey Richards. :yep

    The only times I picked against him at Cruiser were Afolabi I & II and Lebedev.

    I thought he would cut right through Larghetti and was surprised the Italian gave him so many problems.

    You realize this is Jack Dempsey we're talking about, though, right?

    The guy Mike Tyson said he was scared of watching film of him 60 years later, saying he was glad they weren't in the same era? Yeah.

    Wlad might well not have the mental strengths to cope with Dempsey

    He'd be destroyed by all of the famous cruiserweights.

    I mean, are you really bringing up what Tyson said about an old timer he greatly respected?

    Respect and all aside, sometimes you need to be realistic.
